Antonio Conte reiterated his focus is on the immediate future and Saturday’s FA Cup final rather than the ongoing speculation over his future as Chelsea head coach.

A fifth-placed finish in the Premier League, missing out on Champions League qualification, came as part of a season of discontent for Conte, who could still finish the campaign with a trophy if the Blues beat Manchester United at Wembley.

Conte last year won the Premier League title in his first season and signed a new contract, but not an extension to the deal which runs until June 2019.

And speculation has been rife for the entire campaign that owner Roman Abramovich is preparing to make a managerial change this summer. If so, the Wembley date would be Conte’s last as boss.

“I can say for sure this will be my last match this season,” Conte said.

“For me and my players it will be the last game for us. Then, as you know very well, I have a contract and I’m committed to the club.”

Asked about the prospect of a summer of change at Stamford Bridge, Conte evaded the question.

The pair have had a feisty relationship and in January had a running feud, exchanging verbal barbs which increased in ferocity until a truce was brokered at Old Trafford in February.

Conte said: “This is not important what happened. There is a relationship between me and him. Tomorrow I will shake his hand and both of us will think of the game.”

This is the second successive FA Cup final for Chelsea and Conte.

On last season's final, Conte says it was a strange game and a pity because we had the possibility of doing the Double. He adds tomorrow we must fight against a really good team in order to win. #CHEMAN
